City: Chicagoland

im looking for a new seat cover for my 1966 half cab. It’s the silver cover and only see them in parchment. I don’t see anyone making the covers and if you can help that would be great.
Thank you

I just ordered one from SMS. It's silver mink matchstick. It was $895 and had a three month waiting list but they are super nice covers...

Thank you Beer and fish I will have to order one

I wonder if I can just order the materials and just sew one myself as I have all the equipment

Yes, SMS will sell the material by the yard. Usually takes a couple weeks to receive. You can also request samples before ordering.

Thank you LubrLu

You’re welcome. Should post up some pics when you’ve seen them up. You might have a new side business brewing, lol.

Lol I build hotrods and do the interiors and bronco seats aren’t too complicated. I think making soft tops in a old school design with clear windows might even be a better side hustle from building Mahogany boats ..

We had several made from SMS material by our Amish upholstery who does excellent work. We have sold probably 6 covers to other members here and in stalled one on this ‘66 1/2 cab.

$850 plus shipping.

@Gas Pig great looking bronco and great job on the interior. That’s exactly what I’m looking for. Do you have any extra sets available. Thank you

We have only just that last seat cover left. My buddy bought some material from SMS and it took forever to come it. He had enough extra matchstick because he over ordered so he went ahead and made like 5 covers when my Amish upholstery found time to make them. This is the last one unless some wants more then this one but they would have to talk to Joe my buddy directly about that.

Thanks and let me know if you at least want this last one, Jeff

I'll take it if it becomes available

@Gas Pig thank you for the reply and offer. I appreciate the info on SMS and getting the correct materials. As an old time hotrod wood boat builder and have been sewing my interiors for 30 years now. I would have to sew my own or never hear the end of it from my buddies lol
